i don´t want to post

for the record, i did speak to the men a lot, i just didn´t want to continue cause it was hard work and disrupting my dinner. we just had chinese food again for dinner with the canadian couple, we´re all practically in love with the canadian couple.
i´m really tired and not sure why i´m supposed to continue this post. i´ve climbed more mountains and hiked more trails this last week than i have in my entire life. it´s really testing my limit, i´m still trying to recover from my nasty cold which unfortunately half the tour group has also caught, oopsy. with the altitude as well it´s just killing me sometimes. it´s all such an adventure though! you wouldn´t believe how beautiful some of the landscapes are, it´s actually worth my efforts. and the stars are unbelievable, we think there are more stars here because we´re so high up. the whole sky just seems like it´s sprinkled with really bright lights, surreal when you´re staying with the local indians and have no electricity. going to the outhouse in the dark is quite the task.

i do miss home a little, you just can´t beat the comforts of home. i actually have cravings for just an apple...when you´re on the road so much it´s hard to squeeze in simple things i normally take for granted. the bus rides can be really long and we just eat cookies to tide us over and stop at toilets which are just absolutely horrid. it´s a good time for reflection though, i think we´re all learning a lot about ourselves and about each other.

until bolivia,
adios amigos
